[Koha] Import holdings as a separate file to MARC bib. records

[Iming Chan]

Dear all,

I have successfully migrated MARC bib. records from our old system to Koha
3.12.  The old system can only export holdings (items) in csv format, which
I have successfully converted to MARC with Koha 952 tags (using MarcEdit). 
A few examples below:

=LDR  00292nam a2200145Ia 45e0
=008  130605s9999\\\\xx\\\\\\\\\\\\000\0\und\d
=952  \\$2ddc
=952  \\$aCPL
=952  \\$bCPL
=952  \\$g7.95
=952  \\$o423.1 MACQ
=952  \\$p30094000001781
=952  \\$tIn Manager's Office
=952  \\$yBK
=997  \\$c26

=LDR  00278nam a2200145Ia 45e0
=008  130605s9999\\\\xx\\\\\\\\\\\\000\0\und\d
=952  \\$2ddc
=952  \\$71
=952  \\$aMPL

=LDR  00278nam a2200145Ia 45e0
=008  130605s9999\\\\xx\\\\\\\\\\\\000\0\und\d
=952  \\$2ddc

=952  \\$p10000032
=952  \\$t1999 Sept.
=952  \\$yBK
=997  \\$c78

=LDR  00277nam a2200145Ia 45e0
=008  130605s9999\\\\xx\\\\\\\\\\\\000\0\und\d
=952  \\$2ddc
=952  \\$aMPL

=952  \\$p10000033
=952  \\$t1999 Oct.
=952  \\$yBK
=997  \\$c78

Our old system Control Number is stored on 997$c tag and this number is also
found in each of our holdings record.  So it is logical to match holdings to
bibliographic records using 997$c tag (instead of the ISBN 020$a or ISSN
022$a).  So I have setup a new matching rule using 997$c in our Koha system. 
However, after I imported the holdings MARC file to the reservoir using the
Staged MARC Import function, it informed me that no matches were found (when
I have selected 997$c as the match point)!  

Have I missed something?  Your assistance will be greatly appreciated.
